Default Re: Man United U-23 Matches 2016/17


RESERVES: MANCHESTER UNITED 0 FC PORTO 2

Premier League International Cup | Leigh Sports Village | Scorers: Leon 65, 69

Two second-half goals from Porto's Israel Leon brought to an end Manchester United’s interest in the Premier League International Cup.

Nicky Butt’s side put in a decent performance in this quarter-final but in the end they were forced to concede defeat to an accomplished set of players from Portugal.

Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, who is still on loan at Wolves, was granted permission to play for the Reds and both sides started the game with a spring in their step, which provided the prospect of an evening of entertaining football.

The game swung from end-to-end with both United and Porto putting the emphasis firmly on attack, but strangely there were few real chances of note during the opening half.

Leon hit a threatening-looking shot that failed to find the target and, moments later, Callum Gribbin went close with a well struck free-kick. Joshua Harrop was inches wide with a long range attempt and Porto’s Rui Moreira had similar luck a few minutes later with a shot that zoomed past the post.

Both teams were choosing to chance their luck from distance but neither United nor Porto were showing any real accuracy. Then, on the hour, Tyrell Warren was adjudged to have felled Ruban Macedo in the box. Leon stepped forward to take the kick, but United’s Dean Henderson diving correctly to prevent the ball from crossing the line.

However, Leon was to have the last laugh, for he found the net twice within the next 10 minutes to set United on course for elimination from the competition. He grabbed his first, in the 65th minute, with a well-struck shot, and then four minutes later he completed his redemption by doubling his tally.

United tried hard to claw their way back into the game but Porto, with two goals in the bag, were content to stroke the ball from man to man as the clock ran down.

United: Henderson; Warren (O’Connor 69), Tuanzebe, Borthwick-Jackson, Mitchell; Poole (Willock 79), Whelan (Redmond 69); Harrop, McTominay, Gribbin; Bohui. Subs not used: Johnstone, Scott, Buffonge, Kehinde.
